With just a single assist to show for his endeavours over the first three Gameweeks, Fantasy faith in Michu took a dent ahead of last Monday’s home clash with Liverpool. The Swansea midfielder shed almost 66,000 owners in the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) game and suffered a drop in price due to his lack of attacking returns but after opening his account against the Reds, he’s back on many a radar as Michael Laudrup’s side prepare for a kind upcoming run of fixtures.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Walcott Lampard HBA Redmond (Brady)
    RVP Benteke Giroud.

    My question is: FT or save it for next week?

        Just not convinced. Seen him in 2 games this season v united and v Liverpool and for me he didn't impress (even with the goal).

        Europa league for me is going to hurt michu and Swansea in fpl. Getting him in with europa just starting does not appeal to me

        Swansea will be spent after valencia and away and won't get better going forward

    What do you think is the better solution?

    A: GW5 Cout > Moses, GW6 Lambert > Rooney
    or
    B: GW5 Cout > Michu, GW6 Whatever...

    A lets me have Rooney, even though Lambert have nice fixtures.
    B avoids Moses, which I think will be a weakness in my team soon enough, and Michu does look good...
    Unless A, no United cover.

    "with only three forwards (Christian Benteke, Rickie Lambert and Daniel Sturridge, with 7 apiece) producing more shots on target than Michu’s 5."

    How about comparing his shots on target with other mids.

    HBA/Townsend 6

            Townsend 16 (1)

    I have almost built my team but I am looking for 1 average and 1 low priced midfielder to guarantee playing time to cover injuries / bans of my satrting eleven

    Two options:

    A- Ramsey (5.9) + Cowie (4.4) (meaning I should buy Wilson instead of Coleman I already have in defense)
    B- Wittingham (5) and colback (4.5)
    C- Brady (5.1) - Wittingham (5)

    ?

    I am not sure what to think about Ramsey. What's happening when Cazorla and Arteta are back.. ?
    I tend to think Ramsey will still be in the starting 11 of Arsene meaning Wilshere, Arteta and Walcott will share minutes but I am not sure about this..
